Snake Hips - anywhere in the city centre is good on Sunday night, just depends on what you're looking for after a HM! The Grapes on Mathew Street is always good for a pint!
I think it's in its death throes anyway. I hardly ever visit here anymore. It's full of spam, people asking what bloody Garmin to get and "I've got this pain in my knee - what is it"?
DO I LOOK LIKE SUPERMAN? I can't see through to your bones!
You should add me on FB. I'll keep you entertained!
Hello - got my race pack and am looking forward to the day.
Just wondering what options there may be showers/changing. I know there's the Gym Group offer in the race pack but I can't work out how to use that - do you have to 'join' them first? Is there any alternatives around the area?
there are no shower or changing facilities. You just apply for a day pass for the gym across the road in Liverpool ONE.
Alan - Thanks, will contact the gym direct to arrange it.
I did.....and you have!!!
Without you LB, I'd have never known to go for a pee beforehand if I intended to run in Sefton Park before 9am
Once upon a time we used to assist but everyone and anyone who decided they didn't want to run (or couldn't) simply assumed we would accommodate them and it is no longer possible - especially when you as a male choose to run under a female entrant number.
The instruction regarding this is on the paper entry form and at the point of entry on the online system.
Is there a little run still planned for October ?
Got attacked by a Yorkshire terrier in Croxteth Hall Park ,why do owners of little dogs not use leads ?
Alan, it looks like I am not going to be able to take part (really sorry as I asked for a specific number as well) my training has been non-existent - life has gotten in the way!
- and I jarred my knee last week and it still doesn't feel right.
Is it possible to defer or do you want me to send the race pack/number back to you so that someone else can have the number? I was going to see if I could still run it, but I'd rather someone else get the opportunity. Really gutted to miss this.
SC
I am in on Sunday as training towards The Outlaw.
Very nervous and this is my first running race of any description. Now I can spend the week worrying about what to wear, what to eat, will I finish, should I run / walk........
Good luck all
Muffin Top, don't worry! Just enjoy the day as much as you can. Take it steady from the off and appreciate the atmosphere on the day.
Looking forward to this now, 3rd half for me but not done this one yet.
Training has been patchy, with a few niggles and illness all being disruptive
Just hoping for low winds or that last couple of miles will hurt !
On the website there is a mention of being able to register to track/record time via Facebook or Twitter - but I can't actually see how I can sign up for this?
Can anyone help?
Looking forward to Sunday - after my last HM (Milton Keynes) brought torrential rain/sleet, the prospect of showers on Sunday doesn't daunt me too much!
Jenny
Have a look here
Seems to be fairly straightforward.
Hi Alan,
Will there be pacers this time?
Cheers
Mike
Right o Alan thanks.
Morning all, Looking forward to the event. Nice weather today hope it holds for the weekend.
Most importantly Alan if you can get the wind to stay away please that would be cracking!
We've got Kris Akabusi along to start the race and a big screen to promote the marathon.
A Samba dance troupe at the back and a drum team to set you off... going to be good again!
To anyone local
Weather forecast on BBC looks ok not too warm only odd shower if any but NW winds 12 mph
What would wind be in last 3 miles if that forecast is correct?
I.E. head, tail or cross
KOB
Sounds like a bang on headwind. But lets not worry about that. When was the forecast ever right ?
Kris Akabusi to start...nice one! I'm sure Carra was chomping at the bit to start us off again after Tuesday, Alan. Shame he's got a game against Stoke to deal with instead, eh!
